I put mine in some large seashells, no dirt. I mist them with water once a week and they're happy!
Aren’t they amazing? Most often they are found attached to other plants, but air plants need so few nutrients you can drop them in tiny vases or spaces. Misting them with water and keeping them from freezing is about all they need to live for a long time. They may grow a little, and can be reset at any time. Best wishes ☺️
